Set in a prominent hilltop position in highly sought-after Danbury, this deceptively spacious detached house sits within private, south-facing grounds of about 0.52 acres (stls). The mature, hedged garden and heated outdoor pool create a sheltered summer entertaining space, while a double garage and generous shingle driveway provide ample parking for visitors and family life.
The accommodation is versatile and flexible: currently arranged as four/five bedrooms with two/three reception rooms, it suits families who need adaptable space for home working, playrooms or guest accommodation. Ground-floor principal bedroom with en suite and dual-aspect living areas with French doors to the terrace emphasise easy indoor–outdoor flow in warmer months. There is useful loft space with potential to extend subject to planning.
Practical considerations are candidly stated. The house dates from the early 1970s and has an EPC rating of D, so updating elements for improved energy efficiency may be required. Broadband speeds are slow in the immediate area. Several mature trees on the plot are subject to a Tree Preservation Order and a small portion of the front driveway is shared with a neighbour — matters that will affect future landscaping or access plans.
For families the location is a major draw: highly rated primary schools, nearby independent options, country parks and village amenities are all within easy reach. Chelmsford station is about a 5.4-mile drive for commuter links. Overall this is a substantial, private family home with excellent outdoor space and clear potential for modernisation to suit a buyer seeking long-term comfort and garden-focused living.
